UPDATE: Sold Out – Create Your Own Tarte Beauty Box!

Just got my bag today and overall I’m happy. It was an amazing deal that would have been $154.80 otherwise. I did get the wrong shade foundation though (one shade lighter than i originally wanted so i guess i can still work with it) . Has anyone tried doing an exchange?

I received my order yesterday. The lavender bag was much bigger than I thought so that was a nice surprise. I was disappointed in the Amazonian clay full coverage airbrush foundation and really wish I had chosen the compact foundation. The airbrush foundation doesn’t have much coverage. The mascara was meh as was the liquid eyeliner. I like the lipstain and brush I chose. The blush is okay. I would order this again but arm myself with better info about the products/shades. It was a great deal for full size items.

I can’t believe these items are full size!! What a steal! I just added up the items I selected and they total $162, not including the bag. Thanks for the heads-up MSA : )

I really wanted to get this but with lay offs at work I have had to cut box. It was either getting this or nixing my Sephora & Ipsy box and you can pry those from my cold, dead hands. But its a shame because this was a great deal if you love Tarte and were planning to get one or two of these items already.

Ugh how did i not see this! Sad sad sad

Some of the decisions were like Sophie’s Choice for me, especially between the powder foundation and the airbrush foundation. I went for the airbrush but am now wishing I had chosen the powder foundation compact.

Does anyone know if the lip tints need to be sharpened or do they twist up? I hate stuff you have to sharpen!

We need to start a MSA support group to discuss how we buy all these subs that we don’t need but HAVE to have. This one was just way to good to pass up. Hello, my name is Patti and I’m a Subaholic.

I was close but kept waivering on product selection. I agree I would have preferred to be able to pick more than 1 item from a category. And also I have been wanting to try this foundation powder but I really wasn’t sure what color would be best for me and if exchanges would be allowed.

Will items from this be swappable?

I had tried early evening and it was sold out… but thanks to Liz and the lovely posters here, I was able to snag 2 later in the evening. It would have been great if we could have just picked 5 items from the bunch, rather than one in each category. However, since i basically got more than half the items free, I am certainly not complaining about the deal 🙂 I guess some lucky family members will be receiving mascara from me. lol

I’ve been wanting to try out a few Tarte products, thanks so so much for the heads up Liz! What a great deal!

There was no notification…I checked, there was no statement that it was EST.

I signed onto Tarte this evening to purchase the kit. I got as far as choosing the items I wanted to order: The blue bag, the dry foundation in the compact, the brush that was second from the left (highlight brush it has a small brush on one end & larger brush on the opposite end),The Blushing Bride 12hr. Blush, The fatter of the two liners in Olive, The first Lights Camera Lashes Mascara, & Lip Surgence in Energy Noir.

I logged on at 10pm pst & this is what I saw:

It was blank! Not even Tarte’s homepage. I was REALLY looking forward to trying the whole brand out. Do you have an in at Tarte? Someone that might help me place my order?

Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated!

🙁 so bummed I love tart. does anyone know if tart does this at any other times like the holidays? or was this a one time event.?

I was so disappointed . Didn’t see this deal until the time was ticking… Unfortunately I took so long to choose that the clock went past midnight all things were all in my cart and it was Saying the cart was empty when I was trying to check out ….BOOOOO I was really hoping since I had it started it would let me finish but I was too pokey. tears, just tears. ? Lol

I didn’t get a confirmation email and it’s not showing in my paypal. I don’t know if I should order a second just in case or wait for customer service to get back to me in the morning.

They must have added more because I tried again and was able to buy it this time.

wow I wish I had ANY need at all for any of these products. This is such a great deal. I even went through and picked all the colors/products I wanted and realized that these would get used once and then just stored with my embarrassingly large stash of makeup. Is it just me or do blushes take forever to finish? I haven’t hit the pan in any of my blushes because i have so many!

What are people’s favorite Tarte blush colors? Natural Beauty looks nice.

Got one! Major product overload lol too bad the system messed up my sample choice after I checked out… I wanna try the sunscreen, and I’m sure I checked it. But when I saw the confirmation page, the sample suddenly became the foundation pack… Oh well (shrug)

I really, really like this idea! I wish they’d categorize by product value, not product type, though. The dealbreaker for me with this one is that I’d HAVE to buy a blush.

im ordering 2 even though i said no morebuying makeup bc i have so much ill never use it all.

I just got one!! 😀 back in stock guys!!! yay! this is an amazing deal! cant wait to get it!

Out of stock ?

Bummer, it says it’s out of stock now.

I checked this out earlier today and it really didn’t throw me. If it were going to let me select what I actually wanted it would have been great. But the categories were pretty limited and I didn’t need or want any of the options.
